Nestled behind a 1913 craftsman house, you'll find this sweet studio home. It's a serene space with crisp, white walls and wooden beams. The outside space is shaded by a ficus tree, and is the perfect spot in which to enjoy some peace and quiet away from the buzz of the city. Sit in one of the rocking chairs and enjoy a glass of wine and a game of chess as you watch the hummingbirds flit between the shrubs. When it comes to exploring LA, this home is in an excellent location. It's just one mile south of Hollywood, in the Larchmont neighbourhood, which is full of historic homes and independent businesses. You can be in Hollywood in five minutes by car, while a fifteen-minute walk will bring you to the main boulevard of Larchmont. You'll find a farmer's market and a range of shops and eateries. It takes ten minutes to drive to downtown LA, with its bars, stylish restaurants and galleries. This lovely little home offers the best of both worlds – you'll sleep soundly in this residential neighbourhood but can be in the thick of things in minutes. The perfect pied-à-terre.

Local guide
About Larchmont
Larchmont is a delightful neighbourhood in the central part of the city, that's notable for its well-maintained historic homes and quaint old-town shopping streets. The tree-lined sidewalks feature independent stores and boutiques that help evoke its small town feel. Shop like a local at the Sunday Farmers Market, or nosh on vegan cuisine at Cafe Gratitude. It's marginally less fancy - still pretty fancy though - than its neighbour Hancock Park, but it's got plenty of charm. Bookworms will want to check out Chevalier's Books, the oldest independent bookstore in Los Angeles, which resides on its main boulevard.
